Percy Pov :
Suddenly, a light covered me, and I was teleported into a faraway space and was floating.
"Hello, Perseus. " Percy blinks and says, "who are you?" "I am the creator of this multiverse Perseus"
"What do you want from me now?" A man appeared wearing a purple shirt with black tattered jeans and purple sneakers with a perfect build that would make an Aphrodite into a drooling mess. with windblown hair and galaxy eyes.
"It's been a long time since we met." I tilt my head "huh? what did you mean?"
"Meaning you know Perseus Ataraxia, did you not?"
As soon as a few seconds were completed, I was feeling an intense pain shoot inside my body like my cells were burning. I started slow, but with every moment it increased. I saw the time resume Kronos was coming at me again with his scythe raised. "Still don't want to work for me Perseus?" I again spat on his face never He wiped the spit and backhanded me sending me towards the wall and then grabbing my face with his hand "Then I will torture you until you break and maybe make my men have the fun, they have been waiting for one and a half years and will rape your friend in front of me bring them in."
and he places me on the chair for electrical torture and binds me with the wires. The door to the dungeon opened and I saw Zoe and Bianca with tattered clothes their body being limp and showing malnutrition behind them two cyclopes and titan Perses handing the chain they were bonded with. Their eyes move towards me "Perseus thou here?" "Percy, why are you here?"
My rage increased tenfold " Release them Kronos." I tried lunging from the chair they bind me but he backhanded me sending me again a series of pain shot inside me and I crashed into the wall then put down and placed the electrical wire onto my hand and I felt an electrical charge that I had never thought was like my body and soul were crying and burning from the likes of Greek fire. He stepped back and raised his scythe and gave my face a tiny cut it again sent me inside into an unbelievable agony that bound not comprehension.
The torture continued for months with his scythe rendering me useless with every hit as well as Krios, Iapetus, Hyperion along with Oceanus came stabbed me, and cut me with a sword, spears, and axes sending my insides and body into deep agony no end. but the worse was Kronos was slicing me with his scythe while giving me shocks it was worse than taking a bath in the River Styx, I was losing my identity.
'I can help you but will require sacrifice for transporting Zoe and Bianca but the sacrifice must be related to them'
"Well, Perseus wants to change the sides." I again spit on his face "Nah I don't want to " " Now let's see what happens when the son of Poseidon drowns, I mean he disowns you right." he summoned some tub filled with water from a murky river and placed a few of the wires in it and dips my head I feel electric current move across my body I could not breathe underwater and was starting to fall unconscious my body was moving in a frenzy and he removed my head from it. For the first time, I feel fear in the water. my life was seeping away.
'I Perseus Ataraxia sacrifice the sword Anaklusmos and my soul to Chaos for Bianca DiAngelo and Zoe Nightshade'
At last, Kronos raised his scythe and swung at my eye, creating a pain so violent and painful that it crossed the previous pain I endured and a silent scream arose from my mouth. sending my body convulsing like a thousand volts inject into my bloodstream. My eyesight was rendered destroyed beyond comprehension. I could not see anything.
" See Brethren This is your terror now mutilated in this chair in the cell of Tartarus. I don't know how you transported them but now you have relinquished your sword so even if you escape you will be dead within seconds in Tartarus" a loud cry sounded voicing their appraising.
' Is this the end of your Perseus? Do you forget who you are? I mutter in my mind. Then I saw a scene of a boy standing in the presence of the same man that I thought I had seen earlier. The man starts to speak "Rise Perseus Ataraxia son of Poseidon God of Sea, Earthquakes, and Horses, and Hestia Goddess of Hope, Unity, and Home, I Chaos grant you the domains of " the voice soon became blurry, the next scene again became blurry.
I could feel something plunged deep inside my abdomen but I could hardly feel any sensation due to that. On the right side of my face, something punched and it felt like a hot burning fire that burned my skin.
"He is barely conscious let's leave him here. You fetch the water and You four Cyclops guard him and make sure he does not run away"
Then there is a jolt of energy filling in my body. I could feel the damage done to my body starting to heal at an extraordinary rate While this was happening, I also feel very weak.
After I don't know how long a bucket of liquid is dumped on me like before. I could feel hatred, misery, pain, and wailing filled in my soul like my soul is shivering. Suddenly I knew what the water is It was a solution from the water of the five rivers of the underworld. I could feel my eye's started to heal and the water dumped on me slowly vanished.
After a few moments, I could feel my eyes wholly restored. How? I don't know then a screen starts to appear in front of me showing a boy born from the essence of Poseidon and Hestia leading the charge on mount Othyrs decimating Titans and monsters alike with a Pentadent.
Another scene starts to appear in front of me showing the same man riddled with scars wrapped with a tree with a celestial bronze chain. and in front of him, a man was vigorously raping a girl like a mad dog. The man wrapped in the tree shouted " Leave my daughter alone ORION!" He was struggling to escape from the bind.
Another scene starts when his daughter in front of the man starts to flicker with vacant sea green eyes frizzled scarlet hair turned chiton. The man with black hair and dull sea-green eye with a bow on his shoulder rapped the girl who came with Artemis saying " Perseus Rapped his daughter Lady Artemis I saw with my eye and then bind him with the chain so that he could do nothing." with a wild gleam in his eye" Artemis scowled and summoned her bow and " Father did wrong marry me to a pig like you. You rapped our daughter Perseus." and fired arrows over Perseus's body not leaving any place vacant and then turn towards Orion and kissed his lips "My lover is better than you Perseus." Then turn toward the girl " She is long gone" They vanish from the spot and the man bound in celestial bronze starts to flicker. His flickering form exited from the bind and wobbly moved towards her daughter he cradled her on his lap and started to care for her face" My scar I love you, daughter. Even in the realm of faded, we will stay together and I will be reborn again with you. This I swear on the name of Creator CHAOS I will avenge us."
And you will be born again to me. This time I will love you more than anything.
" I Perseus Ataraxia son of Hestia and Poseidon at this moment uphold my domain of…" his voice began to blur and the daughter's body started to glow sea-green and silver then condensed into a single levitating sea-green ball and merged into the man and soon he to flickered out of existence.
I snapped out of the scene present somehow in front of my damaged eye I was again floating in space and front of me Chaos was there.
" This is your past Perseus. Someone stole your life string from fates. So, I have to intervene so things do not go down the drain. But my intervention changes a few things. My gift for you will help you to fight the upcoming cause of destruction shortly. Also, your first child you will give birth will be your daughter with memories before you know."
Then he touches my forehead and I was covered with an off-white glow after some time the glow died down.
" This blessing includes the domain of life and Phoenix one of your previous domains before you faded. You remember what you could with these domains don't you?"
I seem to ponder for a minute then nods. " Yes I can but that means I am now immortal?"
Chaos shook his head" No you are not you only have your domain, not immortality well technically you can still die. Now wake up".
The inky space in front of me vanished in a blink and I was again in the dungeon where I could feel the celestial bronze bracelets dug into my arms and legs. my torso was bare I can tell as the breeze that blows in the dungeon is cold. it clunge to my skin where blisters were starting to form. My thought was starting a bit jumbled. I muttered" Thanks Chaos." and started concentrating on my life and Phoenix domain nothing happen then I remembered Celestia bronze can stop the flow of divine power.
Damnit! now how the heck I am going to escape from here? I am an idiot why Poseidon disowned me I became a mortal and when I got to the domains of life and Pheonix I was still wrapped by celestial bronze so I jerked my arms and Legs from the chains and escape from the bind. suddenly a wave of energy exploded from my inside healing my damaged body with tremendous speed. After a few minutes, I could feel my eyes. The injuries I sustained from the torture are now completely healed.
I flutter my eye open and found myself standing in the cell which is holding various amount of devices from lighting to lava, sword, spears, knives, axes, and such the cell is barricaded by Celestia bronze bars. Outside the cell are four Cyclopes fully armed with clubs and armored adjourned their torso.
I turned toward the chains and grabbed them and started concentrating on them trying to absorb them using my Phoenix domain into me. the chain glowed dim bronze and engulfed my torso.
I then started to move towards the electrical device and grabbed it absorbing the lightning into my body. I clamped my mouth to muffle any sound from the agony of lightning on my body and started soaking every bit of lightning I can. I don't know for how long I was absorbing it. But by the end of it, my body was covered with sweat. My muscles were spasming continuously sending my inside in frenzy.
A sound of clicking appeared in the cells and a muffled voice says " Master says dump water from the Phlegethon river over the prisoner to heal its wound. He will come in a few hours for another round of torture." " Okay" there is a bit of shuffling going on outside. I managed to move towards grabbing the sword when I remembered Ares's curse. then move towards spears and Axe laying on the side. Grabbing spear in left hand and axe in right. I stand up moving back towards the wall.
Cyclopes standing outside open the lock. and two humongous cyclopes entered towing at least 12 feet with clubs in their hands and celestial bronze armor on their torso. behind the Two cyclopes a 7 feet long Telekhine with the torso of a dog and the tail of fish carrying an about 8 and half feet long celestial bronze Trident.
I cannot use my fire against them it will be useless I jabbed The spear directly into the telekhine waist cause he was wearing armor on his torso and hacked into the cyclop's legs when they enter the cell. golden liquid starts to drop from the wound they have taken. The cyclopes roar " Punny Boy thinks he can kill me." he swings the club towards me sending me to the table where torture devices were kept and the lava was oozing. The lava did not hurt and gives me another boost in my system but my head felt wobbling as blood rickle was done from my head where the club impacted. Following The cyclopes attack the Telekhine jabbed his trident into my abdomen and it hurts like bitch. that I tell you.
listening to the commotion three more cyclopes entered with clubs in their hand and were armor. same as that of the previous one. I grabbed the trident and went to the most reckless thing have done. I jumped towards the telekhine due to this the trident goes through my abdomen and texted from my back I could feel my spine, stomach, liver, and kidney punctured by this stunt. I was in deep agony. It's one of the most painful things I have endured in my this lifetime I then grab the telekhine hand with all the strength I could muster while siphoning its energy using my life domain.
Cyclops was circling me as well smiling and laughing seeing me in my state. After a few minutes, the telekhine body was covered in sweat. The Telekhine was now struggling and with every second I could feel itself absorbing. My domain of life was going on overload as it was healing my body continuously from the injuries I recently endured as well as providing my continuous energy to work. With a last jerk, the Telekhine broke down into golden dust and settle down. I then grab the trident and yank it out from my behind. Grabbing it with one of my hands and picking up the spear lying on the floor I throw it with all my strength I could muster with the killing back pain into the cyclops I injured before blinding it. as it stuck like the head of the unicorn but without the face of a horse.
I then touched the cyclops which damaged the eye and again flowed my energy in my fist as I did before to the Telekhine. which continuously dodges the swings from the other three cyclops. Soon the Cyclops dissolved in golden dust. I Jumped toward the cyclopes and started hacking and slicing them while sometimes touching them to absorb their energy when I get in touch. The battle goes on for a few more minutes, and by the end of it. instead of cyclops now their clubs and armor remain.
I grabbed the armor and started using life domain and started absorbing celestial bronze in me hoping it would increase my durability as looks like my curse of Achilles is completely gone.
I then exited the cell and move to find two more Telekhine standing both having Trident in their arms like before but no physical armor. I grab the Trident in my right hand and the Axe in my left hand then started running towards the telekhine with one swing of the axe I decapitated a Telekhine and gut another one with Trident. They turned to dust and I grabbed the trident and wrap it securely on my back with my what remained of the shirt. I then exited the lobby to find kelly and some Empousa Talking with each other.
" Master's plan was a success. The boy will now work for us after the disown from his father and deemed a traitor and exiled."
"Yes, Kelly the Eidelons are great to use if you have a brain and your idea is awesome."
" Yes, know what Sam_"
My mind numbed He didn't betray me. I was happy but it dwarfed with unbridled fury in my core. " I hurled the Trident with as much force I could muster toward where Kelly's heart was located My right hand become numb by using so much force after recovering from the torture. The trident was somewhat moving around 60km/h-90 km/h. I then pick the other Two Trident and then throw it towards the other Empousa Sam in her abdomen. As soon the Trident pierced their body they turned to dust leaving nothing. I rushed towards the spot and then grabbed the Trident's wrapping two at my back and rushed forwards after running for I don't know 2 hours or 5 hours I reached a black gate, which was terrifying and humongous. I mean it is almost 40 feet tall with black skulls of I don't know what is embroidered on its border. The gate is made of Stygian Iron.
I tried to open the gates but they don't budge at all. After repeated tries. I gather all my energy in my arms. Due to gathering energy in my arm, they were slightly buffed up and a slight flicker of lighting could be seen around them with a much more dense off-white aura covering it. I placed my hands on the gates and with all my might I tried to push open the gates. At first, it was slow. The light could be seen through it like at the end of the tunnel. I started gathering more and more energy in my arms as well as in my legs. With all my strength I move back, and my hand struck the gates with enough force that will blow up a 50-story building. the gate opened and all I saw was light.
